I would rather remove the hiding code, if we have to sacrifice
one of them. We both agreed that in[123]_enable is more useful.
And actually we will still keep is_visible() for empty labels.
So even if one day we somehow feel safe to hide a disconnected
channel one day, it'd only need a couple of lines of changes.

I will squash this change into v6, and will send it after I fix
things that Rob pointed out at DT binding.

Thank you
